...

Today I went back home. Currently, my mother is away abroad to care for my ill grandmother, leaving my father and sister alone at home. It’s a bit of a tough situation all things considered. I went to visit for my birthday and stayed a while. Now I left, leaving them together alone. So it goes, I suppose. I’m very tired after a long train drive so do not expect too much lyricism. I did go for a walk in the night but sadly there was no moon and the mist hung thick in the air. It was a haunted sight, but beautiful in its own way. I’m glad I still had the energy for that. There is something magical and mysterious about the mist at night time. It feels like it hides something. It feels like it blankets everything.

Here is the third haiku of the month. I hope you enjoy it.

halos through raindrops

we struggle

as sweat stings our eyes
